PSU offers wireless access through most of the academic and administrative buildings on campus. Most laptops and wireless PDA devices can connect to our network. To connect to the wireless network, you need a valid ODIN username and password or a temporary guest wireless login.
The easiest way to connect to our network is to connect to the unencrypted wireless network, "PSU." Once your machine is connected to that network, open an internet browser such as IE, Firefox or Safari. You will automatically be directed to our authentication page. Use your ODIN username and password to authenticate and you should be able to access the internet.

If you are having issues connecting, please contact the Helpdesk at 503-725-4357 or come visit us at SMSU Rm. 18. Guests on campus can request short term access to the wireless network by visiting the Helpdesk in SMSU Rm. 18 with photo ID to get a temporary login.
Secure vs. non-secure networks:
PSU offers two types of wireless networks: encrypted (secure) and unencrypted (non-secure). Due to the nature of hardware available to users, not every device is compatible with the secured network. OIT recommends that users who are able to use the PSU secure wireless network should do so if they are concerned about security over-the-air. Selecting the secured option will require compatible hardware as well as manual software configuration. Users who do not wish to make the software changes required or have incompatible hardware for secure wireless should use the non-secure network.
